streaming-dvds-with-windows-media-center-and-xbox-360
One of things I've been trying to put together in my spare time is a home media center. I got an XBOX 360 and using that as my Media Center Extender my goal is to stream backups of my DVDs that I ripped to my PC that is running Windows Media Center. Unfortunately I haven't been able to come up with a solution that I find acceptable. I attempted to use Transcode360 to stream VIDEO_TS but it doesn't appear to even see the files on my machine. I then converted my VIDEO_TS files to WMV and while I can stream that, losing FF/RW is unacceptable. (Side note: Maybe FF/RW works with WMV but trying to use the XBOX controller as a remote is painful. I should probably pickup a real remote for it. That will go on my list of things to buy.)
Does anybody out there have any suggestions as to what I can do to realize my dream of a DVD jukebox? I haven't attempted straight-up MPEG-2 yet, but that is my next step. Any help would be appreciated!
